Comment #13 on issue 2388 by ronan.l...@gmail.com: The value of str(expr) depends on a global setting
http://code.google.com/p/sympy/issues/detail?id=2388
It doesn't seem to actually be a bug in Python - I searched through the tracker. From the discussions linked, it seems to be considered a feature. We have to either put up with it or use another language. OTOH, the fact that __repr__ = __str__ for sympy objects is clearly a bug, because it doesn't conform to the definition of builtin repr().
